Hi, first test with the version 1.0 with no limited time limitation:
i'm using lw9.
I have add the client plugin.
I have a test_scene.lws in lw.
When i connect to the main app (by Send, Export, or Try), the error message "Demo-version has no support to save a scene" appear 2 times. But it seem to start normally after that..
So i continue, Add a Render Pass, configure my output file, and hit render current frame.
The messsage "DBGHELP.DLL is outdated" appear and the render is precessinf in background undefinetely...
when i hit "Ok", WE3D crash.
I will try again.
My first impression:
- This UI comes from Amiga days... It must be rewrited.
- If the scene can be send to WE3D, i would like it to read about data it contain (output path, Image format, etc...) maybe that come from the no-save limitation...
good luck.
work well when i export
work well when i export scene to orn file.
good points:
- Anti-Aliasing quality looks good. look better than lw9 on a perspective grid mesh. It's probably better.
- my CPU is 100% used.
troubles:
- Cancel the preparing process freeze...
- enter a rounded value (per example: 5) is not set correctly. I have to enter value as 5.000000.
bad points:
- we really need a Lw friendly UI.
- price look expensive for what i have seen for the moment. Price for worker is not a good idea on a Lightwave market.
- the gallery don't show the quality of this renderer. Nothing looks impressive. Nothing looks undoable. We can just admit that the AA is good. But we need rendertimes...
